Asymmetric silane reduction of ketones and β-Keto esters catalyzed by a chiral azolium/iridium system in the presence of a base in methanol at room temperature

Asymmetric silane reduction of ketones catalyzed by a system comprising a chiral azolium salt 1 and [Ir(cod)2]BF4 (2) in the presence of a base in methanol was achieved at room temperature within 2 h. Implementing a “pre-mixing” experimental procedure improved the efficiency of the catalytic reactio...
